This poem is about something that happened to me earlier this year.


Racial Emotions

School had started, band once again
New experiences, one new friend
Her name was Erin, white and shy
So I spoke to her, what a nice guy
Feelings released, so happy inside
My emotions about to go for the ride
She was taken, jealosy ensued
I needed her badly, my actions quite rude
She felt inside the way I felt for her
Her to break away and "us" to occur
One problem, one I didn't see
Her dad didn't like me, he wouldn't agree
The perfect love so close and yet so far away
My heart now severed and filled with dismay
To make it worse, this spreading infection
She was forced to stop our connection
The one thing I wanted, a friendship to care about
Was now gone and the only thing left was doubt
Weeks went by, no talking, no hope in sight
What happened to the one who brought me such delight
This to be corrected, this sentence now lifted
My happiness back, the sadness now shifted
She was mine again, at least through friendship she was
This is the way life goes, at least for me it does

Very well written in rhyme and flow. Your emotions and frustrations were presented clearly and then the lesson and acceptance of friendship. The friendship is what will last. Romance often comes and goes, but a true friend will last forever! Your life is just beginning, the love of your life may be just around the corner or still miles and miles away. Just be patient and enjoy the friends you make along the way. :) kathy
